Warriors Parade Raises Questions About COVID-19 Safety, Security – NBC Bay Area

/in


More than 100,000 fans are expected to descend on San Francisco Monday to celebrate the NBA champion Golden State Warriors during a victory parade, but that’s raising some questions about COVID-19 safety and security.

The good news is the parade is outdoors, where infectious disease experts have repeatedly said COVID-19 is far less transmissible.

“I think the most concerning part about the parade is not the parade itself, which is generally outdoors,” UCSF infectious disease expert Dr. Peter Chin-Hong said. “It’s the pregame and the postgame, so all the parties that happen before and after, so crowded indoor settings, poor ventilation. Wear your mask.”

Chin-Hong said, so far, there have been no noticeable COVID-19 outbreaks connected to large outdoor events in the region.

For those fans choosing to ride BART into the city, masks are still required in the stations and on the trains.

San Francisco police will be taking steps to make the parade route safe and secure.

People heading to the parade in a cab or a rideshare should be prepared to be dropped off a few blocks away from the route.

Officers do encourage people to be aware of their surroundings.

“We’re going to have a lot of police officers on the footprint and around the venue,” SFPD Officer Robert Rueca said. “Feel free to flag us down, say hi. If you see something suspicious, say something.”

Healthcare Highlights: Cyber-Security, Licensing Board Issues, and Employer COVID-19 Regulations | Ward and Smith, P.A.

/in


Recently, several Ward and Smith attorneys held a Health Care Breakfast and Learn to provide insights on the healthcare industry relevant to their specific areas of expertise, from privacy and data security to professional licensing issues and, labor and employment.

Privacy and Data Security

Peter McClelland, a privacy, data security, and technology attorney who is also a Certified Information Privacy Professional, began the discussion with some trends and tips for healthcare providers to be aware of in regards to cybersecurity.

“Healthcare and financial services are always neck and neck each year for which industry in the United States gets targeted the most by malicious cyber actors,” said McClelland.

In the world of data security, there are three major trends that have been especially relevant to healthcare providers over the past few years:

  • Substantial increase in cyberattacks – malicious actors using trusted third parties or managed service providers to gain access to computer systems and personal information
  • Significant uptick in the sophistication of cyberattacks – phishing schemes, tiny changes in email addresses, and spoofed email accounts increasingly difficult to identify
  • Increased costs associated with successful attacks – average cost for a data breach in 2020 was around $4 million

Outside of the healthcare industry, an attack on a managed service provider, service partner, or supplier is typically referred to as a supply chain attack. These supply chain attacks are the ones that have made headlines in recent years, with companies such as Colonial Pipeline, Microsoft, and Cassia experiencing significant costs to their finances and brand reputation.

“When you read or hear about any of these things in the news, it can be easy to think that events are only tangentially relevant to you,” explains McClelland, “but the same techniques in all of those get repurposed against entities in the healthcare space every day, whether they make headlines or not.”

McClelland reported that phishing scams in prior years almost seemed to be deliberately obvious in terms of sophistication. Formerly, the most advanced phishing and ransomware technology was mostly just available to…
